A blog about vintage trailers and glamping
Let's make some cuteness shall we? This is one of my new designs that I just finished up. You know how they say it's a lot of work to restore or build a vintage trailer from the ground up?

The background is made up of layers of vintage maps. Do you recognize the words? … [Read more...]

I want to wish all of you a very … [Read more...]

How about a Shasta bank? Available for … [Read more...]
I guess I'm on a creative binge this weekend. I found these really small glass ice cream glasses at an estate sale a couple weeks ago and knew I wanted to do something with them. So I got out my wool and started needle felting. A million pokes later (into the wool and my fingers..ouch!), I came up with this cute two scoop ice cream sundae. It's made of 100% wool to … [Read more...]
I recently purchased Photoshop CS5 and slowly working on learning how it works. I'm used to working in Paint Shop Pro so there is somewhat of a learning curve. I figured I'll get the hang of it eventually (; Last night I spent a little time playing for the first time and figured out how to change the paint color on a vintage trailer. I used my original mixed media … [Read more...]
